[talk-au] Another highway classification question. This time in Adelaide.

[Alex Sims]

In terms of consistency with the rest of the roads in the Adelaide metropolitan area primary is correct. It seems to me to be better placed there according to the main (global) tagging guidelines.

All of the trunk roads in Adelaide are of national/strategic important and carry a lot of freight. The same seems so of Melbourne. Looking at Sydney it seems to have a few too many, New Illawarra Road at Lucas Heights, trunk, really? I’m wondering more if the Australian tagging guidelines for metropolitan trunk roads should stress more about a roads function and place in the network, rather than it’s label (A/B/C).

Found another highway classification map note:

This one asking if North Main Road should be classed trunk rather than
primary.

Do we have any Adelaidean mappers that could answer this question?
